Ricardo Salinas, a prominent Mexican billionaire, has disclosed that the majority of his investment portfolio is now focused on Bitcoin (BTC) alongside gold and shares in his businesses. His net worth is estimated at approximately $5.8 billion, and he is known for his strong support of Bitcoin.
In a recent interview, Salinas stated, “I’ve got about 70% in Bitcoin-related exposure and 30% in gold and gold miners. I don’t have a single bond and I don’t have any other stocks except my own.”
The current allocation is significantly increased from 10% in Bitcoin, as revealed by Salinas back in 2020. His comments coincide with his plans to delist his primary company, Grupo Elektra, amid ongoing legal and tax disputes with the Mexican government.
